Surface Studio

    Microsoft has announced the long rumoured (and much leaked) Surface Studio, an All-In-One pc designed to take advantage of and highlight the many touch and pen based improvements that Windows 10 offers.

    It's touchscreen folds almost flat, like a drafting table, so that you can lean on it and draw as you would with a sheet of paper. It's Microsoft's play for the "creative" market, as outside of people requiring a PC with a Wacom digitizer, this thing is expensive for the innards. It starts at $3000, which is eye-watering to me, but will probably be easily justifiable to an artist, seeing as it's combining the cost of the input device and the PC.



    Personally, I love the look of it, and if they released it as a monitor, without any PC, then yeah, I'd probably buy it.
